The house is modern and finished to a high standard, exceptionally well equipped; every room is spacious and comfortable. We had a very friendly welcome and Arielle, our host, had bought food at our request because we arrived on a Sunday when all shops are shut - there was also a gifted bottle of wine from Arielle's vineyard, which was most acceptable. The view from the house is beautiful hilly woodland and it is extremely quiet with only the very occasional passing car.
We used the house as a base for exploring the hills and mountains to the north, the beaches to the south and Carcassonne to the west, and it is great to be within such easy reach of such contrasting and beautiful scenery. The nearest shops are some kilometres away, so planning ahead is needed for food shopping - but that was a small price to pay for the tranquillity of the location. Being sited above the Winery, there was some noise from about 7.30 am but this could just be in the Autumn after the grape harvest and during pressing - it would wake us, but didn't dominate. The outside space is limited, though very pleasant to sit out in for an evening drink, or for lunch.
Cabrerolles is of the best equipped, spacious and comfortable Gites I have rented, with a very considerate host. It is not a 'stop at home' Gite but is a wonderful based for exploring a beautiful part of France. We had a very happy and comfortable stay - thank you.

Very clean, comfortable & well equipped gite in an area with lots to explore. Very welcoming hosts and an easy 5-10 minute walk into town for cafe, restaurants, boulangerie etc. Enjoyed our stay exploring l'Herault.

We had a lovely stay in Villa Alais and can only thank David and Sarah for the "loan" of. The Villa itself offers everything that you need and has so much space to spread into. We loved eating in the evening at the outside table by the BBQ and watch the sun go down and would breakfast in the morning on the front terrace, two totally different aspects. The pool is an absolute bonus and there were enough loungers / chairs for everyone!
The local area is very peaceful and rustic but within easy reach of so much. We all loved walking over the top, through the vineyards to the village of St Chinian (about an half hour walk). The village is very buzzy, particularly on Sunday market day plus good restaurants and bars on offer.
Our party consisted of 5 adults with varied interests. Everything to enjoy was never too far, canoeing, golf, walking and cycling right on your doorstep. I would recommend a visit to Valras Plage, lovely beach with good restaurants, men playing boules - a French delight.
Also during our stay we were lucky to see the grapes being harvested and delivered to the local distilleries, I could go on but really just to say we had a lovely holiday and are definitely considering going back.
